What are some strategies for choosing the best search engine?
This question is in reference to search engines, not Web browsers.
SE's run on Database and Software technology that are closely guarded trade secrets.
There is publicly avail. information about them like "Google uses a database trademarked BigTable that is distributed across at least 10,000 data centers" ..."it may or may not use relational databases," --It HAS to cache common and new search terms which is likely accomplished semantically. How often, when, where and how it does this remains unknown. The system is so dynamic-- debugging is a daily task and like any distributed processor is vulnerable to a virus-however we cannot verify that.
(as opposed to browsers-which run locally: easy to verify and fix but OT)
You will find that each SE returns very different results I had a preference for MetaCrawler's ability to search ALL search engines. I now have a preference for Google because I have had an account for some time so their system keeps a record of all the things I'm likely to search for and can return the most relevant results (to me specifically) in the least amount of time.
Cool technology...also a bit creepy.
However, if you sign up with ask or yahoo etc...they can do the same thing...just in a different way.
Consider narrowing your choice down as opposed to choosing. If you know exactly what you are looking for like "who was that guy who was in that movie?" you only need one. For research purposes it's worth it to plug the same search term into three or more different SE's....the variety of results you'll get reduces any bias in the machines, people or advertising $ that powers them.

Search engines can be extremely handy both from the users perceptive and as a website owner. Maybe I am biased but I can only think of advantages for using a search engine to find information or track down a supplier of some good or service.
Search engines (especially Google, Yahoo! and Bing) do an amazing job of finding, categorizing and reporting information on hundreds of millions of websites everyday. Search engines use advanced algorithms to determine which sites are the most credible and display the top results to a given search term in a matter of seconds.
Website owners can benefit from all the free advertising search engines like Google can do for their site with a little insight about what it is search engines value and how they rank sites. Learning everything you can about how search engines work is critical to your online success.

How can you use internet safely?
First you are going to need to make sure that you keep your computer updated. Microsoft and Apple regularly release updates to patch any problems that have been found with the operating system that could be attacked by hackers. You will also want to keep your web browser updated. Internet Explorer is updated by Windows Update and Firefox and Chrome are updated automatically each time you run them. Next you will want to make sure that all of the browser plugins are updated. A browser plugin is a program that allows you to do things that your browser alone can't do. Some examples of browser plugins include Adobe Flash, Adobe Shockwave, Adobe Reader, Java and Microsoft Silverlight. It is becoming very common for cyber criminals to attack browser plugins. This is because generally people keep their computers updated and browsers are becoming easier to keep updated but not many people keep their browser plugins updated. It works with all browsers and they provide links for your out dated plugins so that you can update them. Last but certainly not least, YOU MUST HAVE SECURITY SOFTWARE ON YOUR COMPUTER.
